WAN Setup (continued)Main Menu=>Basic=>
Enter 4 at the Basic Menu. The IP LAN Menu appears. To configure a LAN IP address…
IP addresses deliver packets of data across a network. These addresses differentiate the source and destination IP address and keep them constant. When a router port detects a packet, the router checks the routing table. The port attempts to match the network number of the destination IP address with its routing table entry. If the port finds a match, it forwards the packet to the destination network. With no match, the port forwards the packet to a router defined as the default gateway.
Subnet masks split one network into a set of mini networks or subnets. Subnetting helps to reduce traffic on each subnet. Subnetting also makes the network more manageable. Each subnet functions as if it were an independent network.

DHCP Server
Enter 2 at the Advanced Menu. The DHCP Server Menu appears. DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This protocol dynamically assigns IP addresses and related information to Local Area Network (LAN) nodes. For temporarily connected network users, DHCP provides safe, reliable, and simple TCP/IP network configuration. DHCP confers these benefits by preventing address conflicts and conserving IP address use. To conserve address use, DHCP centralizes address allocation.
The DHCP Server menu provides the following options…
DHCP Term |

The database translates a domain name into a corresponding IP address. For example, “USR.com” resolves into IP address 231.222.320.04. Use this address to communicate over the LAN between the node and USR.com web site. |
